No Spreading Without Permission P-4The interfaces between the BSC6900 GSM and each NE in the GSM network are as follows: Um: the interface between the BTS and the MS Abis: the interface between the BSC6900 GSM and the BTS A: the interface between the BSC6900 GSM and the Mobile Switching Center (MSC) or Media Gateway (MGW) Gb: the interface between the BSC6900 GSM and the Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSN) The A, Um, and Gb interfaces are standard interfaces, through which equipment from different vendors can be interconnected. The BSC6900 GSM performs functions such as radio resource management, base station management, power control, and handover control.

Course NameConfidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-5The BSC6900 GSM in BM/TC separated mode or A over IP mode supports 3,072 TRXs in a single cabinet. It caters to the mobile network requirements for higher capacity with fewer sites, thus requiring less space in the equipment room and reducing the power consumption. In addition, the BSC6900 GSM supports the simultaneous activation of up to 12,288PDCHs, thus meeting the increasing requirements for packet service growth and saving the cost of packet equipment

Course NameConfidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-6The BSC6900 GSM has a small number of board types. In addition to transmission boards, the BSC6900 GSM cabinet accommodates boards such as network switching boards, signaling processing boards, and service processing boards. The simplification of board types reduces the maintenance cost. The interface boards and service boards, not bound together, are flexible in configuration and easy to maintain and expand. Based on its all-IP platform, the BSC6900 GSM betters the PS service performance. The Abis, A, and Gb interfaces support IP transmission, which provides sufficient bandwidth and saves transmission cost. The IP-based platform and interface meet the trend of flattened network and the requirements for network evolution. The BSC6900 GSM is compatible with the hardware of the BSC6000. Through software loading, the BSC6000 in the existing network can be upgraded to the BSC6900 GSM. The BSC6900 GSM can be upgraded to the BSC6900 GU through addition of the UMTS boards and software upgrade. This facilitates the deployment of a 3G network and protects the investment of the operator. Page7Flexible ConfigurationHardware ConfigurationBM/TC Separated ModeBM/TC Combined ModeA over IP Mode

Course NameConfidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-7In BM/TC combined mode, the BSC is not configured with the TCS. The boards that implement the TC functions are inserted into the slots in the MPS or EPS. With the same capacity, less cabinets and less subracks are required in the BSC, thus increasing the hardware integration.When the BSC is located in a remote equipment room, it is configured in BM/TC separated mode. The BSC is configured with a separate TCS, which is located in the TCR on the MSC side. Thus, the transmission resources between the BSC and the MSC are saved.In A over IP mode, the BSC directly connects to the Huawei core network without using the TC, thus protecting the operator's investment and improving the voice quality due to the reduction of encoding and decoding. The A over IP mode meets the needs for network evolution.Page8BSC6900 Evolution PathsSW upgrade with Legacy HW + New HW (necessary) SW upgrade with Legacy HW + New HW (optional) 200920082006GBSS8.1/RAN10GBSS9.0/RAN11GBSS12.0/RAN12BSC6000BSC6810BSC6900 GSM OnlyBSC6900 UMTS OnlyBSC6900 Dual modeBSC6900 GSM OnlyBSC6900 UMTS OnlyBSC6900 Dual modeSW upgrade with Legacy HW + New HW (optional) SW upgrade with Legacy HW + New HW (necessary) Copyright 2009 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.

Course NameConfidential Information of Huawei. No Spreading Without Permission P-21As the DIP switch uses odd parity check, the number of 1s in the eight bits must be an odd number. The method for setting the bits is as follows: Set bits 1 through 5 and bit 8.Set bit 7 to ON.Check the number of 1s in the bits of the DIP switch. If the number of 1s is even, set bit 6 to OFF.If the number of 1s is odd, set bit 6 to ON.

BitDescription1-5Bits 1 to 5 are used for setting the subrack number. Bit 1 is the least significant bit. If the bit is set to ON, it indicates 0. If the bit is set to OFF, it indicates 1.6Odd parity check bit7Reserved, undefined, generally set to ON8Bit 8 is used to set the startup mode of the SCUa board. The description of this bit is as follows: When this bit is set to ON, the SCUa board is not in auto-startup mode. In this case, the SCUa board must be started by the loading from the OMUa board. When this bit is set to OFF, the SCUa board is in auto-startup mode. In this case, the SCUa board checks the validity of the Flash file before it is started. If the Flash file is valid, the SCUa board is started by the loading from the Flash memory. Otherwise, the SCUa board is started by the loading from the OMUa board.Bit 8 is set to OFF for the BSC6900.Page22Slots in the Subrack (1) Front slot(2) Backplane(3) Rear slotthe boards are installed on both the front and rear sides of the backplane

No Spreading Without Permission P-62The straight-through cable is of two types: the shielded straight-through cable and the unshielded straight-through cable. The unshielded straight-through cable is used to connect the SCUa boards in different subracks.

The shielded straight-through cable is used to connect the FG2a/OMUa/FG2c board to other devices. The number of straight-through cables to be installed depends on the site requirements.

Page63Optical CablesOptical cables are used to connect the optical interface board to the Optical Distribution Frame (ODF) or other NEs.

No Spreading Without Permission P-68the CS signal flow on the uplink is as follows: The uplink CS signals are sent from the BTS to the Abis interface board in the MPS/EPS. The CS signals are demultiplexed in the Abis interface board. Each CS signal uses a 64 kbit/s timeslot and is transmitted to the Ater interface board through the TNUa board. The CS signals are multiplexed in the Ater interface board. Each full-rate CS signal uses a 16 kbit/s sub-timeslot, and each half-rate CS signal uses an 8 kbit/s sub-timeslot. The CS signals are then transmitted to the Ater interface board in the TCS over the Ater interface. The CS signals are demultiplexed in the Ater interface board of the TCS. Each CS signal uses a 64 kbit/s timeslot and is transmitted to the DPUc board through the TNUa board. The DPUc board performs speech codec and rate adaptation on the CS signals, which are converted into 64 kbit/s PCM signals. The 64 kbit/s PCM signals are transmitted to the A interface board through the TNUa board and then to the MSC over the A interface.
